Further developments from the eerie future we're inhabiting: Roambotics wants a wheeling robot to patrol your home. Their first concept robot "Jr." is the winner of the Proto Labs Cool Idea! Award, and is a pretty good-looking object. Designed as an autonomous, self-leveling, wheel-shaped robot with video and audio monitoring abilities, it will identify intruders or changes within the home. Data is wirelessly streamed to the cloud and the Roambotics network, and will update the homeowner via an app or email. The software uses machine learning to better understand the environment over time, and they hope to integrate 3D mapping of spaces. According to their description on Crunchbase, "Jr. features a base station with inductive charging, multi-surface slip and cliff detection, self-stabilization, Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11 A-N, and a NVIDIA tegra 4 microcontroller." That's right, we're one (wheeled) step closer to Robocop.
While I'm the type of paranoid luddite to categorically distrust streaming video of the inside of my home to the cloud, I do find the Roambotics Jr. interesting for its form and purpose. It's unclear how the wheel-based design is intended to maneuver through, say, multi level homes, or how it does on carpet. But the handle-like shape and what Proto Labs founder Larry Lukis called the "friendly, non-threatening unicycle form factor" are fun. It is designed to turn off in the prone position, and turn on when upright, leaving some questions about its ability to stay upright in a house full of obstacles or ornery pets. That said, the approachability of the design goes a long way towards making this robotic patroller embraceable. Just don't give Jr. a laser gun. I've seen that movie and it doesn't end well.
While it's still in development, this teaser from earlier in their process shows... well, not much besides an adorable dog.
But what better to keep your dog safe than a wheeled guard robot?

Crisis in the future
Although I must admit this isn´t the typical scenario and plot for them to get into, it´s a very interesting concept developed by Jason Aaron and now some questions are been answered, such as the link between the bank robbery and the "diamonds" with the time stream mayhem, and that explains a lot: Spider-Man's bad luck got them both stuck in this mess, what makes me feel good about having them in this time/space/cosmic plot.
The dialogues are astonishing, both the Logan/Parker conversation in Logan's hideout, as Spider's dialogues with the Small Folk.
The narrative is very consistent, it´s funny to watch Spider trying to have a "normal" life in all this mess, and at the same time struggling to find an answer to the Earth crisis Doom about to unveil.
The Art is amazing, impressive, uncanny, I think Adam Kubert really delivered in this issue, he has evolved in his own style and improved some limitations he´d used to have (one of the best scenes was the inventory, reminded me of Hulk: Future Imperfect and Old Man Logan, really cool).
To me this issue is a solid 4.5 out 5

Pro Bowler Polamalu opens up for Steelers
Pro Bowler Polamalu opens up for Steelers
http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pitt...s_647690.html# By Scott Brown TRIBUNE-REVIEW Tuesday, October 13, 2009 Troy Polamalu has played less than two quarters this season, but the abbreviated action hasn't stopped the Steelers' strong safety from compiling his own must-see TV moments for the 2009 season. His highlights include the leaping, one-handed interception Polamalu made of a Kerry Collins pass in the Sept. 10 season opener. There also is the indelible image of Polamalu angling in on Chris Johnson, one of the fastest players in the NFL, and upending the Tennessee Titans running back behind the line of scrimmage. Such plays are representative of the ones Polamalu has made since he cracked the Steelers' starting lineup in 2004. And the football field isn't the only place where Polamalu regularly produces "Gotcha!" moments. As demure and even shy as Polamalu can come across, he apparently is one of the biggest jokesters among a group of players that are not averse to having fun at one another's expense. To hear his teammates talk, Polamalu, who could return from a sprained left knee Sunday when the Steelers host the Browns, can be as much of a quiet assassin off the field as he is on it. "You've got to keep your head on a swivel because he's always playing jokes," nose tackle Casey Hampton said. "People that really don't know Troy see the quiet demeanor on TV," wide receiver Hines Ward said. "He's definitely one of the main pranksters on our team." Ward can speak from experience. During an exhibition game this season, Polamalu offered Ward a water bottle while the two were on the sideline together. Unbeknownst to Ward, Polamalu had unscrewed the lid to the bottle before making the gesture one would expect from a teammate of seven seasons. And when Ward tilted the bottle to squirt water into his mouth, he ended up with more than just sweat and grass stains on his jersey. "You wouldn't really think Troy would do any kind of wise-guy stuff," Ward said with a laugh. "He's just a comedian, that's what you love about him." His teammates love the five-time Pro Bowler for the difference that he makes on the field off it too. Polamalu, who has his own foundation, is heavily involved in charity work. It ranges from visiting sick children to helping veterans with anything from making a mortgage payment to care that is needed from the time they served in the military. Polamalu also can be just as generous with his teammates. One time, free safety Ryan Clark complimented Polamalu on a shirt he was wearing. Polamalu later tried to give the shirt to Clark. "That's why I don't tell him I like anything anymore," Clark said of his closest friend on the Steelers. "He's just a very humble man." That humility explains why the 5-foot-10, 207-pounder is loathe to talk about himself and why he is polite but seemingly uncomfortable when surrounded by a pack of reporters. That is not to say Polamalu maintains a low profile, especially when he is healthy. The Head & Shoulders commercials he stars in currently fill the TV airwaves Meanwhile, the otherworldly plays he makes are shown on the seemingly endless loop that is ESPN's "SportsCenter." The side of Polamalu that is rarely captured is the one where he lets his guard down to approximately the same level of his hair. Such as when he hopped onto the lap of Hampton during the Steelers' final preseason game in Carolina and told him to smile for a group of photographers that were standing nearby. Or when the Steelers were stretching before a practice in which noise would be piped in to simulate opposing fans at an upcoming road game. As the Steelers warmed up, Polamalu popped a CD into the sound system and pretended to deejay, much to the delight of his teammates. Ask Polamalu about such antics and he is his typical coy self. "I'm not the prankster," he said. "Somebody's passing dirty rumors around." There is too much evidence to the contrary. Yet, the Polamalu Steelers fans really want to see is the one with which they are most familiar: the player who flies all over the field as if the hair that flows out of the back of his helmet is on fire. Polamalu practiced on a limited basis last week, and signs point to him returning for Sunday's 1 p.m. game at Heinz Field. Asked whether the Steelers had weathered Polamalu's absence by going 2-2 without him, Clark said, "Without question. You put teams together for a reason, that's why it's not a one-man sport. Each piece fits a certain way." Polamalu, who had a career-high seven interceptions in 2008, is a unique fit on any defense. His speed and instincts allows defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau to line him up all over the field. He is just as comfortable and confounding to opposing quarterbacks blitzing as he is backpedaling into coverage. And, as the Steelers can attest, Polamalu doesn't limit his deception to the football field. "He's always playing jokes, always doing something to keep us alive," Steelers defensive back Deshea Townsend said. "We have a good group of guys and he fits in well with us." Scott Brown can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 412-481-5432. |

Thanks for the read Mesa. Troy is one of a kind and he will be missed when his time is up in Pittsburgh. He will never be replaced. I can't wait to get him back on the field for some more super plays. You are the man Troy.

Ronnie Katz
In 1969, during my senior year in high school, I was constantly surrounded by friends who were getting high. Whenever I was offered drugs, I would decline and say that I wasn't ready yet. I graduated that June, and by summer I apparently decided that I was ready and began my 28-year journey into active addiction. By sophomore year of college, I was a daily user and continued down that path for the next 20 years, rarely spending a day without being high.
During those two decades, I watched my great "potential" turn into a "what could have been." It took five years to complete college and after graduating, I had no idea what to do with my English degree. I managed to find teaching jobs in private schools, but they never lasted long. It wasn't until I started a job as a drug counselor in a New York City high school that I started to question my own use and the hypocrisy that defined my life.
Also, throughout this time, I was incredibly lonely and wondered why I could not have a romantic relationship. After an illness in 1990, I spent 3 weeks without getting high and realized that I actually liked the way I felt. It took another 7 years for me to find my way into 12-step recovery, following a move to Nashville and a connection on the Internet with a person in recovery.
Twelve years later, my life is amazingly full and happy, with a loving relationship, a successful career, and an acoustic duo called Broadband. I continue to stay involved in a recovery program, and believe that we need to make recovery visible, so that it is accessible to all who need and desire it. And I feel like I am finally becoming the person that I originally set out to be.

The coming ebook reader flood
(Read article summary)The Amazon Kindle ignited an ebook reader industry and created many rivals for itself.
Screen shot from YouTube
"Kindle" indeed.
Amazon's popular Kindle ebook reader has sparked some fiery competition. Several companies recently announced plans to produce their own ereader-like device, and signs point to more on the horizon.
Chief among the new rivals is an interesting alliance between Best Buy and Verizon, both giants in their respective fields. Today, iRex Technologies, the guys behind a blockbuster ebook reader in Europe, said it would cross the pond with a $400 touch-screen device. The new iRex DR800SG will go on sale in Best Buys across the country and feature downloadable digital books over Verizon's network. It should hit Best Buy's shelves next month, "along with the Sony Reader and similar products," reports the NYTimes.
This news came a day after Gizmodo revealed the stunning Microsoft Courier. The company's pitch video shows a device straight out of science fiction – dual touch screens that face each other like pages of a book. Reportedly led by J Allard, the Microsoft frontman for Xbox and Zune, the Courier team seems to focus on stylus-based handwriting and a scrapbook-like feature for collecting Web snippets.

"Is Chivalry Only for Men? I don't think so, Ladies!"
Split the check. I asked a long-time single male friend of mine why he was still single." His response was, "I can't afford a girlfriend!" As funny as this may sound, there is mounting pressure on men to pay for everything, the dinner, the movie, and even the late night drinks. When it comes to chivalry, the main request I hear from men is that we (as women) should at least offer to split the check. Most of the time a man will say, no thank you, especially if it is on the first date, but the notion that you offered to help him is a great sign of what type of partner you could be for him in the future. It makes a great first impression.
Pay for it all. Yes, I'm talking to you, girlfriend. Ask him out on a date and pay for everything: the dinner, movies, and late night drinks. Okay, take a deep breath! If you are open to considering doing something like this for a man who has been doing this for you for such a long time, there could be huge advantages to both of you. This will be a benefit to him because it will relieve the mounting pressure that he feels in assuring they can afford wining and dining you. This will be huge for you because you will better be able to empathize with all he's going through in order to make you happy.
Surprise him. You can do something as simple as sending him flowers for no reason at all. Show him how it feels to be wooed. Some of the most macho 'manly men' will try and act like you've embarrassed them, but even they'll have to admit that it felt good to know that they were thought of in a special way.
Say, "Thank You". Show your appreciation. Each time he behaves chivalrously, act like no one else has ever done this for you before. Or at least act as if, he's never done this for you 100 times previously. This way, when you say, "thank you," it will be done with such fervor that will inevitably send a good burst of energy his way and will encourage his actions to continue.
Wait for him. When he opens the door for you, odds are he may have to open the door for others too. Be sure to wait for him…with a smile on your face. Ensure that he sees you noticing how he's been so helpful to others and not just yourself. And when he catches up to you, go ahead and lock hands or arms with him as if you are so proud to be connected to him.
Drive. If your man is the overly chivalrous type, odds are, he doesn't mind doing the brunt of the driving whenever you two are together. What do you think he would do if one day you decide to get behind the wheel and say, "baby, you relax this time?" I think that will bring a huge smile to his face, at least once he moves past the initial shock. As a disclaimer to this suggestion, make sure that you are a safe driver. There could be other reasons why he does the majority of the driving when the two of you are together.
Bring him lunch or dinner. If the fastest way to his heart is through his stomach, can you imagine how he's going to feel when you bring him lunch or dinner to work or by his home? You can do something as simple as calling him up to tell him that you are going to stop and pick something up for the two of you to eat. Or, if both of you are lounging around the house, you could be the one to volunteer to go to the store while allowing him to relax. He would really appreciate you for it, I'm certain.
Don't expect it. Finally—don't expect him to be chivalrous. Women who wait by the door until he opens it are only showing that they are expecting him to do certain things for them. Instead, act appreciative, almost like it's a pleasant surprise. And always follow your non-verbals with a verbal, "thank you." Make your thank you count so that he can hear it and so that he doesn't believe that it is a habit of yours to say thank you the way we do when someone sneezes and we say bless you.
If you can follow these simple, yet meaningful steps, you will soon be on your way to becoming a chivalrous woman without worrying that he's pegged you as a woman who needs to be taken care of. You'll be able to bask in the best of both worlds; you are feeling good and taken care of and so is he. Isn't that the way everyone should feel? I think so.

Planned Parenthood is state sponsored. That means those who oppose abortion are financially forced to support it through their taxes. "Shut up and mind your own business?" No... ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐
Start by paying for your abortions out of pocket. Otherwise, justify why you support state sponsored eugenics? Explain why you identify with Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood?
Posted on January 26 at 8:42 p.m.
Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood would be so proud. Her goal of using abortion to cull inferior races from the gene pool (eugenics) are in good hands of the lily white and progressive Ms Tosh.

Abortion is legal murder and public funding it makes everyone an accessory. The tolerant middle ground solution is eliminate public funded abortions and contraceptives.
This means go ahead and have all the abortions you want. Just don't make those who are against it indirectly participate via their taxes.

Did anyone notice Australia just repealed their carbon tax? Carbajal should lead the charge in proposing broad sweeping trade sanctions against the land down under. What's going on with CA cap-n-trade? It's been around since 2012. Carbajal and Capps have an opportunity to aggressively raise the cost of carbon credits on all our largest industrial producers. If that makes them want to relocate to TX, good riddance because Federal cap-n-trade, once implemented will catch up to them soon enough.
It's been a year since all of us got smart meters on our houses. That's enough time to establish baseline average usage and implement excess C02 surcharges.
And then there's China who are clearly not on board. Our leaders should tack a 20% C02 tax on all Chinese imported goods sold in CA. If that seems high, most of us can simply buy 20% less stuff we didn't really need anyway.
All the pieces are in place. It's time to drop the hammer and get serious.

What an ass. I hope he strokes out soon after restitution is covered because he doesn't deserve the lavish pension and health benefits the rest of us toil to pay for.

Hershel, can you hold your breath before gagging on this dead Jeezler's message from 1965?
Posted on May 27 at 12:21 a.m.
Why so serious comrades? The Reagan Revolution has been dead for over 25 years. Our Socialist revolution won when the Patriot Act was signed into law. Who knew that two Bushes were gonna be worth far more than one Clinton in our hand?
Our Communist revolution was more than half way over after implementation of Obama Care. We'll cross the finish line soon after national cap-n-trade is signed into law next year. Tolerance will be our virtue because the children of deniers will be gently washed of their parents fleeting influence by re-education through common core before 2025.
No worries comrades. Despite temporary setbacks, history has always been on our side. Soon, dead voices like this one from 1965 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3Az0o... will be forgotten forever.
Be patient comrades. Vote your democratic party line. Vote your government issue checks twice more and victory will be ours forever.

I got no problem with Libtards preferring to be totally unprepared and defenseless when violent criminals with weapons come at em.
But, why in the name of Elliot Rodgers do all the Libtards think that the rest of us should go through life with blindfolds on and our dicks hanging out?
Posted on May 26 at 10:32 p.m.
Dr Dan, your people (Libtards) keep waiting and shaking for the day when some married with children, freak Occidental Christian with a job starts shooting an un-registered machine gun at you in your BMW because you refuse to get on your knees to pray your gay away.
Instead, we see that time after time, every one of these mass shooters are white Libtards from stereotypical white Libtard families. My common core math says that mass shootings will cease after the rest of us have taken away all the guns from white Libtards.
White Libtards = mass shooters. Take away guns from white Libtards = no more mass shootings. Golly Dr Dan, I think we've experienced a real breakthrough today.
Posted on May 26 at 4:19 p.m.
Here's a prime example of the Libtard political progressive and socially liberal cesspool Elliot Rodger was drowning in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOX5eh...

I bought a Stihl FS 55 R string trimmer yesterday, brought it home and trimmed for 50 or 60 feet, less than 5 min. of run time and broke one of the strings off on a "T" post. When I lifted the trimmer to check the line I noticed the gear housing was too hot to touch. I checked the housing for grease and it seemed to have plenty in it. I let it cool and started it again today and just run at full throttle for about 1 min. and the head was hot again.
I plan on calling Stihl tomorrow to see what they say, but in the mean time I would like to hear from the real world.
Thanks for all input. Larry |
Follow-Up Postings:
Interesting... Would be interested in the feedback from Stihl on that. I have a couple year old Stihl FS56 R which I consider just about a pile of crap and so not worth the 3x paid from one at the local big box store either. That being said, I replaced the trimmer head that came with it, since that too, was garbage. I don't recall if the original head got hot or not. |
- Posted by slowpoke_gardener 6/7 (My Page) on Thu, May 12, 11 at 9:56
I did not get Stihl's phone number but did take the trimmer back to the store where I bought it. They could not get through to a Tech., but did take a new one off the rack and started it up to test. In less than a minute the one from the rack was so hot you could not hold on to the head. They did not want to take it back even though it had run less than 5 minutes. They did say they would contact the Tech. and see what to do. I have not heard from them yet, doubt that I do. I wish I had bought something else. Echo was my first choice but I have to drive 25 miles to get the Echo. Larry |
Maybe that's the next Stihl recall to occur. One was just announced on their "new and improved" gas cap which is horrible at best. Unfortunately for me, I had to pay out of pocket at the beginning of the season for a new gas cap ($13.00) cause that piece of junk broke at the end of the season last year. Now, I just spent 13.00 for a recalled item.. How nice.... |
Larry : Bring the unit back to the store with your reciept and demand a reimbursement . If not call your local better business bureau . Then fill up your car with fuel and head to the Echo Dealer , you will not be disappointed with the Echo Product Line ! |

Ewalk, I am beginning to think there is something wrong with my "Feeler". I ordered Mantis tiller and it was delivered last Thur.. I ran it a while and felt of the gear box, it was hot also. I called Mantis and was told that was normal. I bought a Poulan Pro tilling attachment last year that fits on the shaft of a line trimmer. The gear box on the tiller head got hot and stripped after about 3 hours of use. I took it back and got another one and just gave it to my son because it was too hard to use. My son likes it and is still using it. I have a 6.5 hp Poulan Pro tiller and a 7 hp Troy bilt horse and I can run the crap out of them and they dont get hot. The Poulan Pro is easier to use than the Mantis or Troy Bilt, and burns less fuel. I am getting to the age where I need a lot of "easy". Larry |

I just came in from using my 14 year old Echo trimmer... The "gear head" was hot!!!!! What a piece of crap!!!!!!!!!! Those Stihl trimmers must be crap too!!!!!!! To do that much work..... And they get HOT!!!!!!!! Boy, those nice big tillers must be real good, cause they don't get hot!!!!!!!! Is it me, or has this forum gone totally to hades? Ewalk, you still here spreading chit? It is a shame, this used to be a great forum..... Fish |
Fish , why don't you go crawl back under your rock , this forum has never been better since you and your pantyhose left ! |
- Posted by fisher40037 (My Page) on Sun, Jun 5, 11 at 21:37
This forum is "DEAD" because of MORONS like you that pollute it. No one calls you an idiot, because no one seriously reads these posts, because it has been ruined by juvenile morons like you, so no one challenges you, because why? Why try to defend a dead forum??????? It is a shame, when Spike ran this, it was the hottest forum around..... Now, it is totally worthless, because of posters like you. Fish |
Only thing worthless is your opinion ! Run back to your Big Fish in a Small Pond Forum , because no one here wishs to hear your dribble and Sour Grapes over your Boat Anchor Stihl 290 Dude. Reading your past posts is like watching paint dry , talk about adolescent ranting , if someone has a concern over a power head percieve overly hot and within warrantee so be it . Give it a rest or better yet the rest of us ...please ! |
You are really wrong on this ewalk. Some people get Fish's style, others don't. Me, I like it. There is always truth in his statements that he can back up. Not sales lit, not folk lore...plain cold facts. If you want this forum to be a watered down Cliff Claven rare fact fest, keep your posts how they are. Cause that is the type of poster that is being attracted. |
Ok Mas you are usually rather to the point and in my opinion middle of the road . I assume you are referring to the Stihl ignition (micro processor)fuel management system upgrades within the former MS-290 to the newer MS260 and 280 ? Whats facts are you wishing to pursue other than the dribble both you and Fish insist on that the 270 / 280 /290 are carbon copies of one another other than cc. increase . Thats Hog wash , the 260 and 280 will cut circles around the 270 and 290 boat anchors and I really doubt either you or fish have any more chainsaw experience then I or my associates who have sold Stihl and Husky for over 30 yrs . But I think we digress , the point of fishs malicous post was only to stir up chit . He has not been active on the site for over 5 yrs and his response to the new member was not called for . Why post snide remarks about the member for complaining of a trimmer head becoming hot ? Warm after a hours trimming is normal , hot IS NOT NORMAL especially on a new unit . I don't know were fish got his reference on a 14 yr old Echo Product ? Sarcasum most likely , anyhow I have seen his posts within the Arborist Site and he is anything but an expert within Chainsaw knowledge . SO sorry if you dislike some of my information , but my reponses are not for your needs or acceptance . You are however correct I don't accept fish's Style as productive . |
- Posted by fisher40037 (My Page) on Mon, Jun 13, 11 at 21:52
Ewalk, just "your" disinformation needs to be "scrutinized" mainly your knowledge of the ms 290/310/390 and the ms 270/280, and of course the ms260, each group "vastly" different, and a poster that does not recognize that, should not be "spouting" any "special Stihl knowledge" Fish |
Sorry Dude , but you opened this can of worms , this is ALL ABOUT YOU FISH . SO go ahead and explain to Slowpoke and Dontknow why their contributions in YOUR WORDS are Crap and explain further your disinformation as to 14 yr old Echo . No scrutinizing of my Stihl Knowledge required I own a MS260 and 361 . Have worked on numerous Stihl 290 and 310 Boat anchors . Have friends who are Stihl Dealers and therefore have a little more working knowledge on what Models are worth their weight in $$ . Will not hold my breath on your reappearance next week to explain your lack of consideration of fellow posters . |
I stand by my statement. My Stihl FS56 is a piece of garbage. |
- Posted by fisher40037 (My Page) on Fri, Jul 1, 11 at 21:04
Yes, the new fs56 may very well be garbage, I don't know. As far as other things, I know full well. A gear head that gets hot after use is normal, morons that say take it back for warranty replacement without any info, |

I missed and gut shot a doe yesterday. If you knew me you'd be shocked or think I was kidding but yep, I gut shot a doe yesterday at 2PM in the afternoon right before the LSU/Ole Miss game came on. We were sitting up at the camp which is on a hill about 60-80 ft above the bottom going down to the bayou on a rocky hill in Webster Parish drinking beer getting ready for the game. We were going to listen to it on the radio because well, ole miss... When I turn around and look down the hill and there's deer out in the field coming my way. I drop everything and run to the truck and grab my 30-06 with Nosler Ballistic Tip 125 gr bullets some of you have heard me talk about before. I've never been able to stop this round in a whitetail. And I take off with a tree between me and them and try to get into a spot where I can shoot 200 yard shots with a rest. So I get up there and I'm huffing and puffing, old out of shape disease, and I see them and they're still coming but they aren't stopping and my scope is all over the place from the breathing and lack of decent spot to rest the rifle. So when I lose site of them, I move down the hill more and suddenly get busted when they pop back out in front of me. So I'm stuck on the side of the hill in the open now trying to shoot off my knee at about 150 yards and still breathing too hard. And now it's getting to where I'm about to lose site of them. It's four does. So I do what I rarely do, and I took a shot that wasn't perfect and knew when the gun went off I'd hit too far back. I look up as I'm doing the bolt as fast as I can and get back on her because shes laid out in the middle of the road acting like her back is broken. I'm worried she's about to get up so I try for a neck shot. Only center mass shot would have jacked up backstraps and by god... no. So I bang off a second shot to end it, only she's flopping around and I miss it. And when that bullet goes by her head she suddenly has a miraculous recovery, and in one move launches into the weeds in the field and disappears while the other three does go nuts running around. I lose sight of her but never saw her leave the field so I've got hope. I decide to wait an hour before I even step down that hill. Plus, the game is coming on. So it's first quarter, it's an hour later, and we drive down there with the hope that we can turn the radio up high enough to hear while we find this deer. We walk up to where she went down and BOOM, there's not a drop of blood. There's hair, but no blood. And I can't find any on the tall weeds she ran into. I've got a very bad feeling. But ten minutes later, after spotting zero blood, we're dragging her out from the spot thirty yards away where she stopped and died. So what happened? I gut shot her. The bullet went to pieces like a hand grenade in her stomach when it hit the ground up acorns and leaves and whatnot, and not a single piece of it escaped with the only stuff I found, a piece of jacket or two in the opposite back ham. Had I not shot at her the second time, she would have never gotten up from where it put her down. She'd have died in her tracks. From a gut shot. When we opened her up it was just jaw dropping what became of her guts. There just wasn't much left intact. It was one big stew of blood and guts. She never bled outside, but she bled everything she had inside. I'll post a pic of the bruise from the shock on this thing. It's HUGE. So anyway, Yes, it blew up. Yes it would have been damn near impossible to track because it didn't exit, and yes that was a horrible shot because it didn't even hit a rib. Hit a half inch away from the last one. And had it been a bigger bullet, I would not have found her. She'd have run away. So we got back from gutting her and hanging her at the camp and were back in the game before the second quarter started. And with our hearty imbibing of alcohol, and obvious blood sacrifice, LSU won the game! Thank you 125gr. Nosler Ballistic tip doing 3200 fps out of a 30-06! Geaux Tigers.

Posted by faxis on 11/18 at 8:09 pm to 318Tiger Fan I didn't get picks of the gut soup because I was too bloody to deal with the phone but seriously, there were some bits of intestine that might have been still intact but all the stuff in there otherwise I just pulled out in pieces with my hand. Barely had to cut anything. Not a piece of it went through the diaphragm. Still had a vacuum on it. Liver looked like it had been run over with a truck. Everything else was indistinguishable from the soup. Reply Back to Top |

Yeah it's a really horrible round. I haven't had to suffer losing a deer in over 30 years and this is the second time I can honestly say that it was completely because of that bullet that I didn't lose it. Last time this happened it went down in it's tracks the same way and I didn't shoot the second time because it fell over dead. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Ole Geauxt on 11/18 at 8:24 pm to faxis just for a good hearted discussion, (and i admit, i'm fixin to go to bed) what would have happened if your doe would have gone another 50 yards and disappeared into a thick, thicket, right at dark? This is exactly why so many people lose deer with the balistic tip.. No exit to let all that shite come out and no blood trail, however short it needed to be.. She may have kept on laying there, she may have not.. eta; and the normal effort of finding wounded deer by the large population of kneebooters took place. ps,,, i did use diapers, they were the cloth washable kind, though..

Posted by faxis on 11/18 at 8:28 pm to Ole Geauxt Have no fear Goat that's why I posted this embarrassing shot. And the answer is I'd have found her with the dog. And no way would she have gotten up. Had I not put that one by her ear, she never would have gotten up from the first shot. Nothing lives with all the arteries in it's stomach cavity open and flowing into the cavity. She was dead in seconds. Had it been a larger round, it would not have put that much damage on the target. It would have punched a hole through that you could have followed the blood for all the miles she would have traveled before she'd died. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Ole Geauxt on 11/18 at 8:35 pm to faxis quote:and that's why i put that edit in there immediately after i realized i needed to clarify "most or at least some kneebooters".. quote:agreed, but you know how far one can meander brain dead already.. Seems like I've spent half my life looking for kids and even older fellers than I's deer, where balistic tips have been used.. ford/chevy, choc/vanilla... i just prefer something that will blow up/expand and penetrate, like the PSP...

If the fight over the use of one little Bustleton house were a reality TV show, it would be called Zoning Wars. So far, there have been several episodes, and another is in production now.
When he was still a little-known assistant football coach at Northeastern University, Frank McArdle remembers the uneasy nervousness on one of his first recruiting trips to the Philadelphia area.
Greater Bustleton Civic League members got updates on neighborhood zoning issues and recreation center renovations, heard about utility worker impostors trying to get into homes and learned a once legal left turn off of Grant Avenue is now illegal.
Greater Bustleton Civic League members last week gave out cash and honors, certified the election of board members, learned about new city sanitation regulations, heard about how boring zoning could be because of the specialized language used in zoning cases, and then voted on a couple such cases.
Greater Bustleton Civic League members nominated board candidates and discussed at length a proposal to put gas pumps at the B.J.'s wholesale club during a long session April 23 at the American Heritage Federal Credit Union's Carriage House on Red Lion Road.
Thousands of volunteers spent a beautiful Saturday morning picking up trash, raking leaves, sweeping pavements, trimming, pruning, painting and planting during the seventh annual citywide spring cleanup.
A plan to build a couple of houses on an Evans Street property where just one now stands got the backing of Greater Bustleton Civic League members last week. However, it was far from unanimous support, and the property's owners still need an OK from the city's Zoning Board of Adjustment.
Capt. Joseph Zaffino, commander of the 7th Police District, on Sept. 25 encouraged members of the Greater Bustleton Civic League to call 911 when they see trouble and to keep calling.
A Bustleton property that's often been in the news recently got a cut and a trim from the city.

"We used the square envelopes that seal at a point (instead of going straight across.) Adding these labels to the back of the envelope, right at the end of point, looks great! I love that it's like a little preview of what's inside."
"I purchased the pink color and the labels are beautiful. I selected the silver envelopes and the wrap around really made the back of the envelope unique. I highly recommend the pattern, the pink and grey is elegant, sophisticated and soft with a touch of antique/vintage inspiration"
"I fell in love with this design and color scheme. Getting married this summer, our names on the label will be a lovely gift to my groom."
"I bought these in the green. I LOVE them. The wood background is faded and the pastel green looks great on it. This is VERY Country Chic. I will be reordering."
"Love the labels. Perfect size and quality of printing is great. They are not very thick so any text behind the label if you were going to use them to cover anything, will show through."

Samsung Galaxy S5
The Samsung Galaxy S5 is Samsung's 2014 flagship smartphone. As its name implies, it would be the 5th smartphone in the revered Samsung Galaxy S lineup.
The phone has a 5.1-inch 1920 x 1080 Super AMOLED HD display, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 801 processor, and a 16 megapixel camera sensor. The device launched in more than 125 countries worldwide on April 11th, 2014.

Nexus 6 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 & other top Android flagships [CHART]Like previous Nexus devices, the 6th Nexus comes with a lot of hype. Today we can finally call it official. Of course, the Nexus 6 is not the only big Android phone in the world. As per usual we've put the Nexus up against the best devices on the market right now.
iPhone 6 vs Galaxy S5 (and Android)The iPhone 6 is finally here, and with it comes a hype that only Apple can produce. Regardless of what features they stole from Android, the iPhone 6 will undoubtedly be a huge success for Apple. In the Android World we also have a device that prints money for its maker: the Samsung Galaxy S5.
Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport ReviewThe Galaxy S5 Sport is Sprint's new exclusive take on Samsung's 2014 flagship device, a phone that takes everything we love (and didn't love) about the original Galaxy S5 and wraps it in a new package with some additional fitness-oriented software. While it scores points for its solid build quality, is the Sport a better buy than the first iteration of the S5?
The Best Samsung Galaxy S5 accessoriesWhen it comes to Android smartphones, Samsung's Galaxy S line is about as ubiquitous as it gets. With the launch of the Galaxy S5 earlier this year, the market has become swamped with accessories and add-ons. It's enough to make your head spin. We've waded through the mire to track down the best Galaxy S5 accessories out there

Hi all,
So we just purchased a dutch colonial built in the late 1800s which has been renovated, but the renovations don't really match the age and character of the home. There is a great room addition that has large ceramic tile that we really don't care for. We want to replace the flooring. It needs to be appropriate for the kitchen as well as the family room area since it is one continuous space. Do we have any other options besides wood floors? We want a style that looks old but updated. Thanks! |

Saugus Union School District officials are meeting over the next two days to discuss team-building, back-to-school nights and, most importantly, a bond measure and facilities need.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
Saugus Union officials are hosting an all-day management seminar at the district office Monday in Valencia from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
On Tuesday, the board plans to swear in David Powell at 7:30 p.m., whom board members nominated July 18 to replace Stephen Winkler. There will also be a bond measure discussion.
Related: Saugus Union Names David Powell To School District Governing Board
On Tuesday, the board also will form a school facilities improvement district in their ongoing effort to assess need in the district ahead of their intention to put a bond measure on the ballot.
Saugus Union officials have not formally announced how much they will seek; however, the school's website said the figure could be as high as $150 million.
"Some of our schools are new or have been modernized, and others were built in the 1950s and 1960s. … Our older schools are suffering from leaky roofs and failing electrical systems that must be fixed," according to school officials on the district's website. "The Board has not made a final decision on the dollar amount, but is considering a bond amount of up to $150 million for school improvements."
Related: Saugus School District Likely To Look At Bond Measure Next Year
A bond measure would be limited to no more than $30 per $100,000 of assessed (not market) property value, according to district officials.
The last bond measure Saugus Union officials sent to voters on the ballot was in 2002, when Measure E successfully raised $48 million to build two new schools and facilities upgrades.
The school district began to seek feedback in December with a survey to look at need.
The community survey, released both online and in a mailing to parents, fosters a collaborative dialogue by asking participants to rank their priorities for local elementary schools. Potential projects include:
• Updating schools to protect quality academic instruction in reading, writing, math and science;
• Adding science labs and equipment to enhance science education;
• Fixing or replacing leaky roofs, worn-out floors, hazardous materials and old rusty plumbing, where needed;
• Improving student safety and security;
• Providing students with more access to 21st-century learning technology;
• Updating outdated and inefficient electrical, heating and air conditioning systems to cut utility costs and save money.
The survey can be found here.
The district has 545 classrooms of which 175 are relocatables, approximately 32 percent of the classrooms, according to the facilities needs plan.
About 165 of the 175 relocatable classrooms will reach the end of their lifecycle by 2020.
The Saugus Union School District encompasses approximately 94 square miles of land, most of which is on the west side of the Santa Clarita Valley.
The district operates 15 elementary schools, and its 2013-14 enrollment is approximately 10,100 students.
The district also posted its back-to-school night schedule for four schools: Bridgeport is hosting one Aug. 11, as is Emblem Academy. Helmers is hosting a back-to-school night for transitional kindergarten and kindergarten on Aug. 11. Parents for grades 1-6 are invited for Aug. 12. Mountainview is hosting on Aug. 14.

Microsoft: The Unlikely Sponsor Of Linux
Published on 25 May 2012 10:28 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Free Software
36 Comments
the Fedora hot dog marketing strategy
going on at
LinuxTag in Berlin
, another interesting aspect of this leading German Linux conference is the sponsors for this year's event. Microsoft and Nokia are among the leading sponsors.
For this annual conference at the Berlin Messe about Linux, hence the name LinuxTag, one of the leading sponsors of the event is... Microsoft. Microsoft became a partner with LinuxTag for their 2011 event and they are back this year as a "partner", per
their 2012 web-site
Microsoft's sponsorship of LinuxTag 2012 is very present both on their web-site and in physical form at the event. Microsoft was also widely advertised at LinuxNacht, their usual evening reception for the event, with table-top Microsoft tri-folds and their logo on the projected slides. On Thursday during LinuxTag, there was also a Microsoft session entitled "
Microsoft and Open Source: An Update on the Journey
The abstract for the Microsoft openness talk by James Utzschneider: "Microsoft has become increasingly open as a company and increasingly focused on investing in standards and interoperability as a way to provide customers with flexibility and choice, helping them optimize their mixed IT environments. In this, his second Linux Tag talk, James Utzschneider, Microsoft's General Manager for Competitive Strategy, will share his perspective on Microsoft's openness journey – including the company's commitment to cross-platform interoperability, its current relationships with open source technologies and communities, and how customers and partners are responding." I didn't have the time to stop by this talk, but from those that I know who attended they all found Microsoft's views to be a mix of bogus, comical, and entertaining remarks.
As far as Microsoft's expectation on ROI by sponsoring LinuxTag, that remains an open question. This isn't Microsoft's first time sponsoring or being involved with a Linux event. Microsoft has even presented at past Linux Foundation Collaboration Summits regarding
Microsoft's lessons learned from Linux
, etc. Microsoft is a contributor of the Linux kernel due to
their Hyper-V Linux drivers
and other work. With
their acquisition of Skype
, they're also continuing to support the Linux client.
Microsoft also put up a "Blogger Lounge Powered By Microsoft" at LinuxTag 2012 where they have coffee, drinks, etc. This has also happened at previous LinuxTag events as well. Though I usually don't find myself at this Microsoft Lounge, since they don't have the
openSUSE beer
. As far as Microsoft's unusual Linux sponsoring, they also continue to spend thousands of dollars per year on advertisements via direct buys on Phoronix.com... Ads for Windows 7, Internet Explorer 6 / Windows XP EOL migration, Office 365, etc. I'm not sure what return on investment they expect off of Phoronix.com advertisements, especially when
I think Windows 8 is mostly a crap wreck
and relay words on how
Valve's Gabe Newell isn't liking the direction of Microsoft
, etc. Yet they continue to spend thousands annually on traffic for those who aren't
Phoronix Premium subscribers
Nokia is also another big name at LinuxTag 2012. This is a bit odd since now all of their mobile phones are moving towards using Microsoft Windows Phone 7, after they
got in bed with Microsoft
. Nokia and Microsoft remain passionate lovers to this day after they tossed out the Linux-based MeeGo partnership with Intel and the Linux Foundation.
Nokia's sponsorship of LinuxTag 2012 though does make some sense since they
continue to support the Qt tool-kit
. It's not clear what Nokia's ultimate plans are for Qt, I've heard various talk from different developers in private, but for now the Qt tool-kit developers at least continue to be employed by Nokia and they are preparing for their Qt 5.0 release later in the summer. Nokia though has already
sold off the Qt Commercial work
. Nokia wasn't a sponsorship partner for LinuxTag 2011 or 2010.
While not completely odd, Oracle's also another partner on LinuxTag 2012. Oracle at least has lots of software on Linux and other Unix-like systems, in part due to their acquisition of Sun Microsystems, but they're certainly not friendly towards all open-source members.
Following Oracle's acquisition of Sun, they
pissed off the OpenOffice.org development camp
killed off OpenSolaris
, and
VirtualBox Linux kernel drivers are tainted crap
, among other measures to alienate open-source / Linux fans. Oracle's sponsorship of LinuxTag at least isn't as strange as Microsoft's large presence.
Other LinuxTag 2012 partners/sponsors include the Berlin RootCamp, XL Energy Drink, Berlin University of Applied Sciences, Sophos, and the Open-Source Business Alliance. Two of the high-profile companies that are missing this year as LinuxTag sponsors compared to previous years of this major Berlin Linux conference is IBM and Google.
